《周礼》农业伦理思想探析

Exploration and Analysis on Agricultural Ethics in The Rites of Zhou

《周礼》中很多典章制度是早期农业文明的反映,蕴藏着中国古代农业伦理思想的关键要素。梳理《周礼》的农业伦理思想,我们发现《周礼》以协调人与自然、人与社会以及人与人之关系为主线,用"三才""三宜""活民""安农"等原则和规范将各种农业规划、农业管理和农业灾害救助贯穿起来,体现出那个时代农业伦理实践的守护精神和可持续性追求。农业作为国民经济的基础,其相关的伦理问题不论在古代还是今天都处于事关全局的核心地位,探究以《周礼》为代表的传统农业伦理,是对我国农业伦理理论建设的有益补充。

Many laws and regulations in The Rites of Zhou reflect the early agricultural civilization,containing key elements of ancient Chinese agricultural ethics.By combing the agricultural ethics thought of The Rites of Zhou,it is found that the book takes the coordination of the relationship between man and nature,man and society and man-man as the main line,and integrates various agricultural planning,management and agricultural disaster relief with the principles and norms of three talents,three benefits,supporting people and protecting farmers,which reflects the guardian spirit and sustainable pursuit of agricultural ethics practice.Agriculture is the foundation of national economy,and its related ethical issues are at the core of the overall situation both in ancient times and today.The exploration of traditional agricultural ethics,represented by The Rites of Zhou,is a beneficial supplement to the theoretical construction of agricultural ethics in China.
